monologue

The next morning, Chu Xingmu was waiting for Tang Zhe downstairs in Huang Qing's company. Tang Zhe was eating and running with a box of egg tarts in his hand. Chu Xingmu leaned on the edge of the flower bed and watched Tang Zhe gobble it up.

Tang Zhe ate half of it, glanced at Chu Xingmu, and silently gave the remaining half box of egg tarts to Chu Xingmu.

Chu Xingmu showed a teachable expression. He ate up the egg tarts in twos and twos. After wiping his mouth, he said to Tang Zhe, "Now you can go to the front desk with your ID and ask. If their boss has to make an appointment to see you, you will It is said that their company is harboring fugitives, and the police will come to arrest them later.”

Tang Zhe touched his head and asked hesitantly, "Is this not very good?"

"What's not good? If you're told to go, you can go. I'll take care of the consequences."

Tang Zhe was worried, and walked in through the gate with one step and two turns. Chu Xingmu called Zhang Ziyang.

After a while, Tang Zhe walked towards him with a man who looked like a department manager. In fact, Chu Xingmu had approached Zhang Yu the day before. The front desk said that the boss was not in the company. Chu Xingmu said nothing on the surface and left the hall After waiting outside for a while, he saw Zhang Yu coming out of the front door and getting into a car, obviously not wanting to see Chu Xingmu.

Chu Xingmu is a policeman and a criminal investigation team leader. Since the boss doesn't even care about him, it means that there is something wrong here. The specific reason may start from the night Huang Qing died.

Zhang Ziyang's surveillance has already been sent. There is a section of surveillance at the entrance of Xijie Road station east of Daxue Road in Yongxing District, where Huang Qing got off the bus, which is exactly what the taxi driver said.

"Mr. Zhang, it's really not easy to see you." Chu Xingmu, who was sitting in Zhang Yu's office, said with a smile on his face.

That President Zhang hurriedly asked the secretary to go out to serve tea, and said with a smile: "Captain Chu, you are joking, I am really busy these days."

"I don't dare to joke in front of you. If someone finds out that we are colluding with government and business, I won't go around with you. Has there been any personnel changes in your engineering department recently?"

Zhang Yu replied: "Yes, Huang Qing will be transferred to the branch company, and he is preparing for the handover of the new job recently."

"Where is the branch office?"

"Jiang City."

"Is Tang Yi on a business trip to Jiang City?"

Zhang Yu asked calmly: "Tang Yi? Why do you ask that?"

"I want to find out about the situation with Tang Yi. Tang Yi's secretary said that he has been on a business trip for two days."

Zhang Yu explained: "It's like this. The financial system of the Jiang City Branch has not been perfected yet. Tang Yi, as the chief financial officer of the head office, needs to deal with many financial issues in person. We made arrangements as early as a week ago."

About Tang Yi's whereabouts and Linghai Group's personnel changes, Chu Xingmu knew about the same, and he began to cut to the chase: "Where were you on the night of the 17th?"

When Zhang Yu heard this, he paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "At home."

"I haven't asked you what time you came home yet." Chu Xingmu said.

Tang Zhe frantically took notes on the side, cheating.

"At home all night."

"Did you have any entertainment that night?" Chu Xingmu asked again, Zhang Yu's schedule was comparable to that of a star, and there were more entertainment than Chu Xingmu expected, staying at home all night?If he hadn't asked his wife, Chu Xingmu would not have doubted him.

"Yes, but it ended earlier. I went home at eight o'clock." Zhang Yu said calmly.

"But the monitoring of the road section captured your car. It was your driver who drove that night. The time was around 11:30. You went home at eight o'clock. Could it be that the other you went out in the middle of the night?" Chu Xingmu refused to give him A little chance for justification.

The office was quiet, and after a few seconds, Zhang Yu said helplessly, "Huang Qing's death has nothing to do with me. I just saw him and saw that he didn't look very well, so I asked the driver to give him a ride."

"It would have been better to say no earlier? Our police are the most suspicious." Chu Xingmu said, "You said his expression is not right, why is it wrong?"

"He seemed to be in a hurry. He said something happened to a friend and he had to go."

Tang Zhe thought, no wonder why Huang Qing didn't know where Huang Qing went, and turned another car halfway. Who was he going to see?

"How is Huang Qing usually in the company? I'm talking about his interpersonal relationship. You are his immediate leader, so you must know better than the employees below."

"I don't know that."

Chu Xingmu had a look of sudden realization on his face. The relationship between businessmen should not be asked too much, but Chu Xingmu is sure that Zhang Yu has more important things to hide from him.

"As far as I know, Anhe Road is the farthest of the three roads from your home to the company. Since the party is so late, why do you take such a long way home?" Tang Zhe stopped writing and looked up. Ask Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu said: "My daughter likes to eat cakes from a cake shop on Anhe Road, so she called me that day to ask me to buy them back, but I went too late and the cake shop was closed."

Tang Zhe underlined these few words in his notebook, and then closed the notebook.

After leaving the company, Tang Zhe followed Chu Xingmu and asked him: "Captain Chu, do you really believe what he said?"

"I believe it's a ghost. Didn't you see that he kept his mouth shut about Huang Qing's death? Why did I look for him today? Could it be his reaction when a normal person encounters the death of an employee under his command? Say something carefully, Who did Huang Qing have the closest relationship with before he was alive, how could he not know?"

"As the chairman of such a big company, it depends on which employee is upset. Even if Huang Qing's position is relatively high, as he said, it is enough to transfer Huang Qing to the branch? It is not enough to kill him."

"I didn't say that Huang Qing was killed by Zhang Yu."

Tang Zhe was a little confused, and asked again: "Then what do you mean he had a social event that night?"

Chu Xingmu showed a malicious smile and asked Tang Zhe, "Have you ever seen a vegetarian old cat?"

Tang Zhe nodded immediately, and said with great interest: "My grandpa's cat often eats vegetarian dishes with my grandpa."

Chu Xingmu glared at him, "You can't save you, silly boy."

Then Chu Xingmu strode away. Tang Zhe stood there thinking for a long time, suddenly realized, and hurriedly followed, and said: "But Team Chu, some old cats are really vegetarian! My grandpa's cats are all vegetarians!" I have raised it for ten years."

In the police office, Xia Ci’s severed hand case made progress again. The fingerprint of a third person was extracted from the printed paper, but this fingerprint was incomplete. Although it was not useful evidence, this fingerprint confirmed Xia Ci’s case. According to my guess, there was indeed a third person at the scene.

Since Hu Hanying lives on the first floor, and the surveillance system of the residential building has been broken for more than half a year, the incident occurred during the daytime, and most people were out for work. The clues provided by the witnesses were only to confirm that Hu Hanying was indeed at home. Someone saw a courier. When I went to his house, the express delivery was the dust collector bought by Liu Zhen, and the dust collector had not been opened after the incident.

"Why is Liu Zhen in such a hurry to cremate Hu Hanying's body?"

"She said Hu Hanying's parents wanted him to be buried early."

"Let's assume that murderer A went to Hu Hanying's house. Liu Zhen left home at 20:[-] am and returned home at [-]:[-] pm. During these eleven hours, Hu Hanying never went out. According to the instant noodle soup in the kitchen, it can be determined that Hu Hanying Liu Zhen said that she didn’t see Hu Hanying eating instant noodles when she left in the morning.” Xia Ci laid out the photos taken at the scene and said, one of which was numbered [-] The photo is a bucket of instant noodles on the counter.

"What if he eats breakfast? Liu Zhen and Hu Hanying are divorced, and they still live together like a normal couple." Zhao Chen asked.

"Liu Zhen said that she got up early and made breakfast that day, and left a copy for Hu Hanying. As for why they still live together, according to Liu Zhen, after they divorced, they shared half of the house. This was an agreement between them." Lang Lang added.

"The murderer must have known Hu Hanying, and he was very close. Otherwise, according to Hu Hanying's habit of rushing to draft, he would definitely not let strangers in. It must be that person talking outside."

"He probably made an excuse to go in and then talked to him for a while."

"Maybe Hu Hanying was going out at that time."

"Well, I found a box in Hu Hanying's room, which contained two stacks of printing paper, one of which was unsealed, and the printing paper we found at the scene was taken out of that box."

"What does he want to print?" Bai Yao asked, if Hu Hanying wanted to print something, it could only be his manuscript, "If it's his manuscript, at least a dozen sheets of paper are needed."

"I asked his editor. He did call Hu Hanying on the day of the incident. They were just discussing the layout of the new book. The editor once had a conflict with Hu Hanying because of the content of the book, but it was not enough to hold a grudge against Hu Hanying. kill him in his heart."

"Have those debt collectors asked? Is it possible that Hu Hanying owed the murderer money? The murderer asked him to pay back the money, but Hu Hanying refused, so the murderer wanted to kill?"

"I asked, and they all said that they only went to ask for the debt after they learned that Hu Hanying was dead."

"How much did Hu Hanying borrow in total?"

"At least 20. I've always had a question. Is the money Hu Hanying borrowed used for his sister's treatment or used elsewhere?"

"Go back and check the hospital where his sister lived. The hospital will definitely keep the records of the treatment expenses."

"Have we forgotten someone?" Lang Lang said suddenly, "Sister Hu Hanying's boyfriend, to be precise, is her ex-boyfriend."

After Lang Lang finished speaking, Bai Yao immediately said: "Yes! We met with an aunt who is a neighbor of Liu Zhen's parents' house. She said that Hu Hanying's sister committed suicide half a year ago. It was Liu Zhen who told her to stop harming others. .”

"What's the name of his sister's boyfriend?" Xia Ci asked.

"Jiao Feng, Liu Zhen said that he was the first to look for Hu Hanying, but he has been working in other places, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to go back and forth between the two cities in half a day, unless he grows wings and flies back." From the city where Jiao Feng works It takes at least twelve hours to get to Qingshi.

"Maybe he really has wings?" Xia Ci suddenly looked at Lang Lang and Bai Yao, the three of them looked at each other, Lang Lang dropped his pen and walked out, Bai Yao quickly followed after seeing this.

In the afternoon, Xia Ci went to Hu Hanying's house again, which was the scene of the crime. Xia Ci looked at the door for a while, hesitating whether to go in. When the door opened at this time, the neighbors around him probably objected, because there were many children nearby, and children Curiosity is high, and the adults are afraid that they will run around, and someone just died in this building, and it is said that it is unlucky.

Xia Ci was leaning on the guardrail of the corridor with his arms folded, thinking about the location of Hu Hanying's house. If he was the murderer, how could he not alarm the neighbors and enter without anyone noticing?

Xia Ci suddenly thought of a place, the back window of Hu Hanying's house. His house is on the first floor, and the distance between residential buildings is very small, and his house is just in the corner. Opposite the window is another residential building, two buildings There is a very narrow passage in between, very dark, during the daytime even adults don't want to go there, Xia Ci turned on the flashlight of his phone and walked in, when he got to the innermost, he found that it was facing the living room of Hu Hanying's house, Xia Ci Ci tried to knock on the window, and took a flashlight to illuminate his feet. The cement plastered the surface and dripped water after it rained, so the ground was clean and there were no footprints.

Xia Ci looked up again at the top of the two buildings. From this angle, he couldn't really see anything, because the building opposite was built sideways, not facing each other, so he couldn't see anything clearly. Maybe from another What can be seen in the side windows of the building?

According to the structure of this building, the room with side windows should be the bathroom. What if someone happens to make a phone call at the window of his bathroom, or just take a look at it curiously?what can i seeXia Ci wrote down the location of the residents in another building close to Hu Hanying's house, then walked out of the narrow passage, and returned to the entrance of the unit building.

At this time, Xia Ci met a man in the corridor. He looked like he was in his 30s. When he passed by Xia Ci, he kept his eyes on him, as if he hadn't seen him. Xia Ci suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

The man paused, turned around and looked at Xia Ci suspiciously, waiting for Xia Ci to speak again.

Xia Ci noticed that his eyes were black and blue, his mental state was very poor, his eye sockets were sunken, and his eyes were dimmed. Xia Ci asked, "Are you a resident upstairs?"

The man nodded and said, "I live on the sixth floor."

"Oh, someone in this family just died, do you know him?"

The man looked at Xia Ci with cloudy eyes and said, "Yes, he is a writer, and his writing is quite good."

Xia Ci suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "Are you his reader?"

The man shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "All the nearby residents have read his books."

"Is there any recommendation? I mean his book, so many people have read it, it must be very well written." Xia Ci showed an expression of appreciation.

The man thought for a while, and said, "The World, people around here like to read this book."

"Okay, thank you." Xia Ci thanked him.

The man said "You're welcome" and went out. Xia Ci stood there and thought about his words carefully, maybe he could find some clues from Hu Hanying's book.
